I had this problem when I upgraded from 2.2.6 to 2.2.10 (Ithink). I'm
running CS1.0 and I simply didn't have the /sbin/clock executable on my
system. I can only assume that 2.2.6 had the code to set the clock in the
kernal and 2.2.10 doesn't. I grabbed the /sbin/clock rpm, installed it and
all was well.
My syptoms were almost exactly like yours.
